You may or may not have heard, but Hatoful Boyfriend is getting an HD remake on Steam! There is new content and an additional ending. If you haven't played it, you really should. Don't judge a bird by its plumage.

Hatoful Boyfriend is a parody of the dating sim genre, in which the human protagonist goes to an all-bird high school. Bird puns abound. It's a light-hearted romantic comedy...

...except it's really not. The real plot is convoluted and goes far deeper and darker than is possible to explain without major spoilers, and by the time you discover that, dating these birds will be the last thing on your mind.

It's $10 for the regular edition and $15 for the collector's edition, and if you order before the release date of August 21, both versions are 10% off. Everybirdie should buy it and enjoy it! Though it's technically about dating pigeons, the romance part is G-rated all the way through, so it's really all in good fun.

“every time you fall I’ll help you stand” hahaha so how about that SSB trailer

This wraps up the second drama CD. I do plan to do the fourth, but I have other projects to work on, so I shouldn’t start it for a while… keyword there being “should”. 8D;; we’ll see.

The short scene with Henry and Lucina was previously done by Amielleon here! An interesting thing is that a couple minutes of this track are almost word-for-word from the game, with several adjustments to make up for happenings in the drama CD. I decided to translate it directly rather than using the game’s official translation, and there’s at least one interesting change. Those parts are marked by {curly braces}. I can point out specific differences between the CD and the original Japanese script if anyone wants them as well.

in this track: you can laugh at my attempt to describe audio battles. about the last minute is legit everyone’s battle quotes strung together. I used the English versions of all of these since they’re more recognizable, save for the very last, since the “official” release didn’t actually do a direct translation of that line and it doesn’t make sense otherwise.

with thanks to Amielleon for her help on a couple lines! there is one that's still pretty difficult to decipher, and it's marked in (parentheses) if anyone has any input. ;;

Again, the second half of this track was previously done by Amielleon here~

eta: the title of this track is one of those that's supremely annoying to translate. literally it's something like "the resolution of those who stand at the top". in this particular case, it's referring to the necessity of sometimes having to make difficult and cruel decisions in order to properly lead the people.
